Paint
Painting the walls is one of the simplest and most affordable ways to transform any room in an instant. Whether you opt for crisp white, warm neutrals or a splash of colour, you can create a totally different aesthetic in no time at all. When you’re choosing colours, think about the size of the room and the vibe you want to channel. Lighter shades make bijou bathrooms look larger and brighter while soothing tones of blue, purple and green can add ambience. If you want to add colour without making the room look smaller, use accessories to lift plain colours on your walls. If you’re opting for a theme, for example, the natural look, opt for colours that complement the trend, such as green, white and shades of brown.
Blinds
Replacing old curtains or blinds is a brilliant way to upgrade your décor and draw attention to the windows to maximise natural light. There is a huge range of bathroom blinds on offer to suit all styles and trends. Opt for chic, wooden blinds for a botanical, nautical or rustic theme or neutral fabric blinds for a clean, contemporary look. Before you buy blinds for your bathroom, always double-check the measurements.
Accessories
Adding accessories to your bathroom is a quick and easy way to experiment with new interior design trends and switch up the aesthetic. You can alter the colourway or introduce new themes using accents and finishing touches. From plant pots, vases and toothbrush holders to storage baskets, shower shelves and rugs, there’s an array of accessories to choose from. If you’re short on space in your bathroom, it’s a great idea to look for functional accessories to add storage.
Feature walls
Creating a feature wall is a fantastic idea if you want to revamp your bathroom without changing everything. Focus on one wall and make it pop. You can do this by adding wall art, a picture gallery, a statement mirror or a bold choice of paint colour or printed wallpaper. Think about the styles you love and take inspiration from bathrooms you’ve seen on TV or social media or places you’ve visited, such as hotels or trendy bars. You could opt for floral, botanical or graphic wallpaper for a cool urban jungle or industrial theme, or add a large vintage mirror for a romantic Parisian vibe, for example.
There’s nothing like retreating to a restful, peaceful bathroom at the end of a busy day and enjoying a well-earned soak in the tub. If you long for a beautiful bathroom, there are some very simple ways to turn a drab or messy space into a heavenly haven. Paint your walls, replace old curtains and blinds, use accessories to inject colour or channel new trends and themes, or design a feature wall.
